Where can I get some good smiths gauges? Some of you guys have obviously sourced them from somewhere, but where? Ive looked at ebay is this the best place?

I like the cream ones with the chrome bezels but black will do

Mike

Yep, me too, and less than half the price of new ones from Hardiman's. They wanted to charge me more freight than mini spares did too!

Or be patient and lurk amongst the ebay halls for a bargain :wink:
